Usage Instructions
-
Cable Preparation
Always use a clean, sharp cable cutter to trim the steel derailleur inner cable neatly to length. -
Installation

Function
These caps protect against fraying, reduce the risk of cable stray strands, and help maintain smooth cable routing and reliable shifting.
Precautions & Maintenance Tips
-
Ensure Secure Fit
Use the correct size—1.2 mm—for Shimano derailleur cables. A mismatched size may slip off or not seal properly. -
Regular Check-Ups
Inspect cable ends periodically—especially after muddy or salty rides—and replace caps if they’re loose or bent. -
Safe Disposal
Aluminum end caps are recyclable. Dispose of used caps responsibly in your usual recycling stream.
